Yes. The two organisations are engaged at that strategic level to make sure that we understand where Invest NI's development priorities are and that Northern Ireland Water's capital programmes reflect that it understands the economic priorities. It is important that the two organisations talk. The Member will be aware from his constituency, as I am from mine, that, if people are ready and willing to invest in the various business parks and land that Invest NI owns, we must ensure that the necessary infrastructure is there to support them. To grow our economy, it is important that we have resources for NI Water but also that there is alignment and understanding between the organisations developing the economy and the infrastructure.
